Business Communication - Face to Face
Communication
1 day Instructor-Led Course (8 hours)
Course Overview
Even as technology has allowed us to connect with an ever-expanding
global network through the click of a mouse, face-to-face
communication is still as important as ever. Improving one's
in-person communication may seem nonessential and downright quaint
in this computerized age, yet many workplace situations, often those
involving conflict, feelings, or other sensitive issues, still
demand human contact. FACE-TO-FACE COMMUNICATION explores why
personal contact remains the most powerful type of human interaction
and what readers can do to improve their skills to become excellent
communicators.
